Hi, I'm Dave Graybill, the Fishin' Magician!

We had the whole family out on Fish Lake and we caught a big mess of perch.

Here you will find current information on fishing in Central Washington State.

I grew up in Central Washington and began writing about the outdoors in the mid 70s. I began broadcasting report on outdoor recreation on KOZI Radio in Lake Chelan in 1991.
